The lumbar region is the support point on which are based the trunk, head and arms. In Chinese medicine, it is called the ”Palace of the Kidneys”. The lumbar region is the place where the vital dynamism is rooted. Carrying heavy charges, inappropriate positions, lack of exercise, but also stress and fatigue contribute to weaken the lower back. The weakened back muscles contract and no longer maintain properly the vertebral column. When the kidney energy is weakened, there is a lumbar fragility, pain in lower back and/or recurrent attacks of sciatica.
